SkyFire Beta

Unreal! I have gone to every website I can think of that the oem browser and opera mini couldnt load with no problems what so ever.Real full screen with no black bars in landscape. I highly recommend giving it a try. You have to sign up for beta testing here Skyfire: Sign-up. Very fast surfing.

Hello everyone. Just downloded skyfire today and I must say nothing comes close. I have gone to every website I could think of that the oem browser and opera mini were unable to load. Skyfire was able to load and view everything on every page I went to. I must say it seems much faster then opera mini and oem. Try it when you get a chance.

I agree with you, I downloaded it today and it works wonders, loads fast and it play youtube videos, you can even control the volume using the buttons on the phone.

Another slight drawback to this service, IMHO!

Read carefully before committing!

i don't like the idea of this browser, as far as i can tell your phone sends URLs to their computers, then THEIR computers browse the internet and send information about what the website looks like to your phone.

you can call me paranoid, but it seems to me like you have no privacy at all while browsing with skyfire

Funny you say that Georgije. I have been sitting around this morning after using skyfire all evening wondering the same thing. It just hit me that it is impossible for our phones to do this without the help of some "third party" system. I think in the near future we will not have programs on our computers etc. i think we will log onto the program online and use it as we would normally. We will just have boxes with tons of ram and powerful processor lol. Kind of cool and kind of scary.
